Public and utilities procurement
Tender documentation, evaluation of bids, clarifications, dealings with the national procurement agency, contract modification during performance and price adjustment.
Public procurement law in Romania, from tender documents to final judgment
We advise contracting authorities and economic operators throughout award procedures, challenges before the National Council for Solving Complaints and contract disputes. Based in Bucharest.
Foreign bidders come to us for the same reason Romanian ones do: procurement deadlines here are counted in days, and the rules that decide a tender are rarely the ones written in the contract notice.
What we do
Four areas where we handle a steady caseload and can cite decisions we obtained ourselves.
Challenges and procurement litigation
Complaints before the CNSC and appeals to the courts of appeal, defence for contracting authorities, annulment actions and damages claims for unlawfully rejected bidders.
EU funds and financial corrections
Assistance during audits, challenges against irregularity findings and financial corrections on projects funded through the recovery plan and the 2021–2027 programmes.
Commercial law and contracts
Commercial contracts, consortium and subcontracting agreements for large tenders, debt recovery, insolvency and disputes between businesses.
